Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Denim Ink (28)

Hey guys! I'm back with another review. For today it's going to be Bobbi Brown's Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Denim Ink. I chose this color because I wanted something dark but not "too" dark like black ink. I was choosing between this and the purple one. I decided to get this because I have a similar purple liner by Urban Decay called Rockstar.

The problem with these gel liners is that they're not as "portable" as pencil liners. First, they're small but bulky. It takes a while to put them on because you have to be really precise and also you need a brush for this. So you need not only bring this small bottle but you also have to bring a liner. I prefer using this at home when I have enough time to prepare.

The brush that I use for this is from Bobbi Brown also. It's called the Ultra Fine Eyeliner Brush. My brother got it from me in Singapore but I believe it's also available locally.

I prefer using this brush more than others because it's really fine, the tip is precisely cut and it gets just enough product.

This product is really good and it rarely (because I do have oily lids) fades. It also doesn't melt which I like. I prefer it fading than melting because it looks horrible when it goes on my under eye area. Ekk!

I hope more colors would be available here in the Philippines because these are simply amazing!

Bobbi Brown Denim and Rose Palette

I recently got the Bobbi Brown Denim and Rose Palette from the Red Girl Shop a few months back during her year end/new year sale. This was probably PHP 1,000 off or something. It was a good deal so I bought it.

There's something annoying about the zipper in the packaging. it's a bit hard to open and close it but it's called "denim" so I guess they couldn't help it. LOL.

Colors are pretty alright. They are pigmented except the sparkle eye shadow. Navajo is a good base, not super opaque, just enough for a good base for eyeshadows. Denim is a good gray matte, something I've been looking for and the Dark Rinse I honestly haven't tried.

As for the lip colors, not really impressed with them except for hot rose gloss which is amazing. makes my lips super plump. Hehe!

I'd give this a 3.5/5 overall because some are not impressive and plain forgettable. 

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink

I recently got the Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink because I've really wanted to do the whole eyeliner thing again and want it to be jet-black and super matte. When I was a beginner, I really didn't want to use gel liners, I preferred pencils back then. Now that I kind of got the hang of liners, I am more confident to use gel liners.

 

I tried to use different brushes for this but nothing works as good as the brush used to apply it at the counter. It's the Bobbi Brown Ultra Fine Eyeliner Brush expensive but I got it for free when my brother went to Singapore and got it for me!

I wasn't able to get a photo of it unused so here's how it looks like after around 5 uses, - looks like it takes a lot of product for one use, probably gets stuck in the brush. 

 
Here's the photo when I used it, simple, sleek but very edgy.

You can use it as is or add eyeshadow for a more "full" or smokey look.

Only fallback on this one is it melts down after a while especially when you're sweaty or your eyes start tearing when for example you yawn. Not much but I can notice some of the product melting.

By the way, I believe only black and brown are available here in the Philippines but I've seen more colors online. Hope they send some more colors here in the Philippines.

Loving Bobbi Brown

Bobbi brown is the most natural make-up I've worn in years. In high school, I remember asking mom to buy me a concealer and the first counter we went to is Bobbi Brown and I was instantly sold. I love the fact that they have a lot of colors so you're assured that you're going to have a shade to match you.

Recently, I've hit pan with both my concealer and corrector. Sometimes I just use the corrector during those days that I'm just in the office so I rarely use my concealer anymore, just during times when I have to dress up or feel like dressing up.

There's still a tiny bit of product in my concealer and I won't buy until I completely finish it. LOL. Corrector still has a lot of product though I already see the pan. I also love how sleek the packaging is. No frills, just a simple, super travel-friendly product which I can bring with me anywhere.

When I run out of the corrector, I'll definitely buy it again. As for the concealer, I might pass up this one because I like the corrector on its own.

Bobbi Brown Natural Brow Shaper & Hair Touch Up

For the make-up gurus, gods and goddesses, doing their brows is such an easy job, it's annoying. Haha! Kidding. For me, sometimes I get it right, sometimes I don't so for those times that I need to hurry and want to get perfect brows, this is my go to product: The Bobbi Brown Natural Brow Shaper & Hair Touch Up. This is heaven sent, it makes your brows in place without any fuss, adds color, makes it fuller and it's such an easy task.

My color is apparently Rich Brown in #6. This is PHP1,300 a tube and comes with a wand/spoolie type - like a normal mascara brush. This is actually a mascara for the brows. It shapes it and keeps the hair in place.

This is the outcome and I love it! It's full, stays for a long time. However, when I have a lot of time to prepare, I still use my In2It Waterproof Eyebrow Colour. I use my eyebrow brush from Charm Pro because it works like magic and does an amazing job and then after that, I apply a light coat of this brow mascara to keep it in place.

Have you ever tried a brow mascara? Spill!

Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Bare Pink, Guava and Mod Pink

Hello there! I'm back from the dead! I know I've been M.I.A lately and that's because I've been really busy with work. Yes, not school - but work. Anyway, I also lost the urge to write for some weird reason. I seriously don't know why but that's what happened. Now that I'm back, I hope this continues because I have a lot of stuff to share with all of you guys!

First, is the ever delayed post on my Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in 3 shades. I do have five which includes Cosmic Raspberry and Soft Coral.

First off, I would like to show you guys Bare Pink which is as natural as a lipstick gets. It's more of a nude shade, not really lip color because my natural lip color is pink and this is like beige-y type.

This is how it looks like - very natural and very simple. Best when you have grand eyes and or bright cheeks! Something I would wear everyday.

Next is Guava which a bright pink/orange color.

See what I mean?

It's definitely bright. I would wear this with a clean, fresh face without the redness, strong brows, and a brown shade of eyeshadow. This is so summer! I love it and it's one of the brightest colors I have.

Next is Mod Pink which is one of Cosmo's top pink lipstick in their annual Beauty Awards. And seriously, it does not fall short when it comes to the color payoff.

I couldn't get a decent picture close to the real deal and this is the closest one I got. Sorry if it's a bit blurry. Anyway, this is how it looks like on me.

This is one of my go to pink lipsticks because it's a barbie pink but not a loud one like NARS Schiap or those other bright pinks. This is obviously very wearable and something you could pair with any outfit, anytime anywhere! Love, love it!

For buying all that, I of course got freebies!

Both are free from Bobbi Brown and they are all so nice! Imagine, I got a palette! I don't think this is even a real freebie because it's a palette! The colors are nice and very pigmented, seriously! The blush is my favorite. One swipe and it's perfect!

 The other one I got is an eye cream or a base for concealer! Perfect. Doesn't make it oily or makes the make up melt. There's really nothing bad I can say for Bobbi Brown products!

Here are some photos of the lipsticks:
